Two of our admins, Mabelle and Minami, were on the GMA-7 early morning show, Unang Hirit, this morning to talk about Twilight collectibles:

Special thanks to Claire and Rome for lending us items from their collections.

Access Hollywood spoke to Peter Facinelli at the 11th Annual Costume Designers' Guild Awards, and Dr. Carlisle talked about his preparations for New Moon, which is expected to start shooting next month. Click here to watch the video. Thanks to Rachel of NBC-Access Hollywood for the alert.

MTV was at Toy Fair 2009, and they've put up this video interview with NECA's Director of Product Development, Randy Falk. NECA showcased their Twilight merchandise at the Fair, and revealed that, along with the Edward/Bella Action Figure Set and the Alice Cullen figure, they will be coming out with about 5 more action figures in time for the release of New Moon. Click here for our previous report about the new action figures.

Carter Burwell's work on the musical score for Twilight was nominated for Best Original Score for a Horror/Thriller Film at the International Film Music Critics Awards. Click here for more information.

If you're interested, you can now view the trailer for Twilight that's being shown in Japan for the release of the film over at Everglow.

Lastly, Entertainment Weekly is debunking the recent Internet rumours about Madonna (yes, THE Madonna) joining the cast of New Moon. But since Madonna's manager, Guy Oseary, is a producer for the film, the people involved think it'll be cool if one of her songs will be included in the soundtrack. But that's exactly what the status of the whole thing is -- people think it's gonna be cool. There are no negotiations going on yet.

Question for the day: If Madonna will be in the New Moon soundtrack, which Madonna song do you think should be included and why, or do you think they should write an original song for her to perform specifically for the film? Please do comment. :)

In a previous post, we reported that NECA is coming up with an Edward and Bella action figure set which is due out on May 2009. There are now pictures from a recent Toy Fair of an Alice Cullen action figure, also due out this year. Click here for a better view of Alice's face, and here for more photos of other NECA Twilight merchandise. Please remember that this is just a prototype figure and some details may change when it's finally released.



HitFlix.com is confirming that Rob Pattinson will be a presenter at the 81st Academy Awards, which will be airing this coming Sunday in the U.S., and Monday morning (Feb. 23) in the Philippines via ABS-CBN.

If you're planning a trip to Japan sometime next month, better plan it around the time that Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart will be there to promote Twilight. :)

Just for fun: A law student on Livejournal wanted to take a little break from studying for the Bar Exam and decided to list the crimes that the Cullens have committed.
